South African bowler Bosch joins Middlesex

Middlesex have signed South African bowler Eathan Bosch for all competitions for the rest of the season.

The right-arm fast bowler, 28, is available for the Division Two match against Durham, beginning on Friday.

He had a short spell at Essex in 2024, featuring in the County Championship and T20 Blast.

“I’m really excited to represent Middlesex for the remainder of this season,” he told the club’s website.

“The group has been really welcoming since joining, and I am excited to contribute as much as I can to help push the club towards Division One.

“It’s always been a dream of mine to play at Lord’s and to play a full season of county cricket. It will be a really special experience for me.”

Bosch, who has one cap for South Africa – he played in a one-day international against New Zealand last year – has taken 262 wickets in 191 matches across all formats in a club career that has also included spells at KwaZulu-Natal, Dolphins, Paarl Rocks, Jozi Stars and Pretoria Capitals in South Africa.
